Title: Warping ???
Post by: phentop on April 15, 2002, 10:08:34 AM

5 friendlys all after the same spit....I had gotten to within 500
waiting for the right shot then wham he's gone to my 3 oclock
1.5 out .. all the friendlys are still headed the same dir. as I....
all turn about the same time I climb and turn into him and again
4 staright times get to within 800 - 300 and everytime zip he's gone .......everyone by now is complaining and poof  he's gone...
someone starts asking if anyone caught his name - not sure if they did or not....

Sun night same thing... While protecting base from inc. att.
I was in the air for around 10 - 15 min without hitting a single
plane because of them warping as soon as I got on their six..
I got the crap shot outa me but never got a kill from them warping. Something not kosher when they are within 300 then zap outo 1.5.    

I'm on a cable setup 300kbs...1.33 TB processor {W.C.&O}, GF3
video.. I havn't had or seen any of these probs till just recently..

Whats the trick? Or is it a Trick?

Get a film (alt + R) of it if you believe its cheating.  Remember, not everyone who warps is cheating (probably a miniscule pecentage) and even cable connects can experience lag.

DDT...

everyone is experiencing connection difficulties from time to time with the current ISP and # of customers...

Once the T3 is installed hopefully most of the warpiness will subside.

Sounds to me that it is a problem with your connection somewhere.  Typically if you see lots of people warping then it will be your connection that is the problem.  If you see one person warping then it is probably their connection that is bad.  What you describe makes it sound like your connection is bad.

Make sure you check your own net status when you see warps.  You can do it from the clipboard, setup, netstat (or something like that).  Regardless of what your home setup is you can still see network lag from your net provider.  I've also had quite a few cases of "host queuing" being rather spikey recently but nothing like what you describe.

Jump over to the Internet Connectivity Forum and I bet Skuzzy will help you out.

Remember, with the new film editor you can get the names of those filmed. If your ever wondering "who IS that guy?" hit ALTr and you will find out when you run that film.
